I don't want to eat some weird part of an animal, like the liver or the heart. That should be illegal because it's so gross.

Texture, that's exactly it. Texture bothers me.

The sleep paralysis reminded me of this weird 'thing' that happens to me sometimes. I had NO idea it was an actual 'thing', I just thought I was nuts. I had always called the feeling "Other Worldly". It happens to me about once a week or so. Very very odd. Feeling like living in a dream is the best description, imo.

Depersonalization

Definition
Depersonalization disorder occurs when you persistently or repeatedly have a sense that things around you aren't real, or when you have the feeling that you're observing yourself from outside your body. Feelings of depersonalization can be very disturbing and may feel like you're losing your grip on reality or living in a dream.

Many people have a passing experience of depersonalization at some point. But when feelings of depersonalization keep occurring, or never completely go away, it's considered depersonalization disorder. Depersonalization disorder is more common in people who've had traumatic experiences.

I experienced that phenomenon when I was younger as well. It's like I would mentally go somewhere else, or was in a kind of semi-dream state, then I come around / awaken and everything around me looks and feels different. I do still kind of "zone out" at times, just not as much.

I think the only logical explanation is that there are times when we go over into another dimension, some kind of parallel universe. :what:

Just joshing, of course. :giggle:

I hate it. It mostly happens at work. I seriously think it has something to do with the fluorescent lighting. But I don't even want to get up or talk to anyone because I'm afraid I'll walk into a wall or tell a coworker I have to poop or something else equally embarrassing.

Sick!!! Even green beans make me gag. I can't imagine having to eat Rocky Mountain Oysters or something. I would probably throw up my own stomach.

YES!! It's the best still there. I moved from Old Town to North Scottsdale 2 years ago ... I was delighted to find Los Olivos NORTE up north here ...Just as awesome...! We go every week for our fix.

:rockon: FRIED ICE CREAM :rockon:
My 1st ex's dad's Mariachi band used to play there every weekend back in the 60's (Sal's Mariachis). Funny story: Salvador was playing there and a underage waitress caught his eye. Salvador was common law married and had 3 children and one in the oven..............Sylvia, the "waitress" became pregnant.
Shot gun marriages REALLY did happen back then!:floorlaugh: They went on to have 4 more children after moving to Cali. When old Sal died years back, let's just say this Spanish paramour had more than 2 families, 26 children in all, so it was more of a first family reunion for half brothers and sisters than a funeral for old dad who had a tendency to disappear after a few years.
Scottsdale was so totally different, they still had water troughs on either side of Scottsdale road, back in the 50's, before my time, it was still dirt and on the weekends, they'd dig a pit in the middle of the street and have BBQ's. You had LuLu Belle's and the Pink Pony Saloon right there, the pool hall, and Lute's Pharmacy with a real soda jerk. For the life of me I can't remember the ice cream place there, but the exterior was painted pink. On 1st Street, just off Scottsdale Rd, there was the 2 X rated movie places (OMG) the Pornofino and another one across the street (I have C.R.A.F.T., Can't remember a f-ing thing, major brain melt down) and the Wigwam, the biggest shoe store in the area.
It was so cool growing up down there, back then!

We ordered some last week on vacation, I've tried but still can't eat fried calamari. Those little claw things are just like little miniature hands, totally creeps me out.

Guess we won't be inviting you to the next round up where they are chopped off ...

and promptly BBQ'd! Yummmmmmmmyyyyyy! :giggle:
 
Lol, the claw things are tentacles with suckers. It is not slimy.

Squid is not for everyone. I got two friends hooked on it, another said it was like chewing rubber bands. :floorlaugh:

It is a texture thing, not much taste really. I like texture things. I also like extra firm tofu, so you see, texture to me is just an addition to the pleasure of eating food. I do not like flan though. I like to chew food.

You people have some weird, weird taste in food. I don't like anything slimy. Doesn't that just remind you of boogers when you eat it?

HO, seriously, you crack me up!!!! :floorlaugh: We should have a general "Spew Alert" when you log on so we don't snort whatever we're drinking, or have it end up all over our keyboards!!!! :floorlaugh:

LOVE your stories! SugarBowl is the ice cream place. It's still there... and The Pink Pony reopened a few years ago after being closed for years! It's really nostalgic to go there for dinner. Old Town is kind of trendy now... in a D-Bag 30K millionaire jerk-face young people sort of way.

I probably shouldn't tell you that I've been craving boiled tongue lately.

You know, I think you're onto something here. I definitely believe fluorescent lighting has something to do with it, because it happens to me when I'm in places like shopping malls or WalMart. In fact, I hate going in shopping malls now. And if I stay in Walmart too long, I lose all sense of time, feel disconnected from reality, and feel like I really am in an alternate universe. The feeling goes away as soon as I leave.

Nevermind the nasty barbs they did at the prosecutor's expense several times....No no double standard here at all.

Thanks!!! I'm making myself laugh today too so I look like a complete lunatic laughing over my fake work while I'm really on WS.

ME TOOOOO!!!!! When I was a teenager, I called it Mall Eyes because I always felt so Other Wordly in the mall!

I swear I read something about the fluorescent lighting somewhere. Surely I didn't just invent it because I'm not that smart.
